Have you ever wondered what it would be like to find yourself strapped to a giant rocket that's about to go from zero to 17,500 miles per hour? Or to look back on Earth from outer space and see the surprisingly precise line between day and night? Or to stand in front of the Hubble Space Telescope, wondering if the emergency repair you're about to make will inadvertently ruin humankind's chance to unlock the universe's secrets? Mike Massimino has been there, and in Spaceman he puts you inside the suit.

wonderful book
Reviewed: 04-29-17
So glad the author narrated the book himself. Riveting. This is the story of a great man sharing the beauty, and wonder if earth and space from the unique perspective only an astronaut can give.
The examples of teamwork, persistence, faith, and hard work are inspirational.

Thirteen-year-old Aaron was chosen to save their world, but it might come at the cost of losing his own... Breaking into an old lady's basement was supposed to reward Aaron with new friends.

Before he knows it, he is accused of witchcraft and invited to a bonfire - where he's the main attraction. If that's not bad enough, a goblin army shows up and toasts the town... literally.

This is the sort of book middle graders can enjoy under the covers at night or with Mom and Dad on a road trip or just at home. There is adventure, action, and excitement. Parents know it is a safe exciting read.

Cinderella with resonance with Star Wars
Reviewed: 01-28-12
You get the Cinderella story but better. All the portions of the story are well thought out so nothing feels contrived. Cinder and the prince get to know each other. There are good reasons for Cinder to keep some secrets from the prince. The prince has urgent needs for himself and the country. Cinder may be just what the prince needs, even though neither he nor Cinder realizes it. It is adventurous and adorable. Strong female lead. Touches all the key points of the fairy tale.

Not so very long ago, Eragon - Shadeslayer, Dragon Rider - was nothing more than a poor farm boy, and his dragon, Saphira, only a blue stone in the forest. Now the fate of an entire civilization rests on their shoulders. months of training and battle have brought victories and hope, but they have also brought heartbreaking loss. And still, the real battle lies ahead: they must confront Galbatorix. When they do, they will have to be strong enough to defeat him. And if they cannot, no one can.

Long awaited and worth it.

A fitting conclusion to the series. Also, I enjoyed the interview with the author at the end. A definite plus. The story was as good as I hoped it would be, and the performance was enjoyable. The various voices are nicely distinguished. Well worth reading or listening.
